Prima edizione First Edition. <em>Since the late sixties John Hilliard's work has evolved by continually raising questions about the nature of photography as a representational medium subjecting it to a critical examination of its shortcomings and unreliability while also celebrating its material specificity. Pictorial characteristics such as lighting proportion and perspective and their realisation within photography build the basis of Hilliard's interest and are constantly challenged in his works. By emphasising the distinctions of photography in relation to other artistic media such as painting drawing or sculpture he continues a dialogue on its position within contemporary visual arts.<br /><br /></em> <em>Dalla fine degli anni Sessanta il lavoro di John Hilliard si è"; evoluto sollevando continuamente domande sulla natura della fotografia come mezzo di rappresentazione sottoponendola a un esame critico delle sue carenze e della sua inaffidabilità e celebrando al contempo la sua specificità" materiale. Le caratteristiche pittoriche come l'illuminazione le proporzioni e la prospettiva e la loro realizzazione all'interno della fotografia sono alla base dell'interesse di Hilliard e vengono costantemente messe in discussione nelle sue opere. Sottolineando le distinzioni della fotografia rispetto ad altri mezzi artistici come la pittura il disegno o la scultura Hilliard prosegue il dialogo sulla sua posizione all'interno delle arti visive contemporanee.</em> Holzwarth Publications, hardcover
